Independent Bookstores and the eBook revolution
Green Apple Books – San Francisco
Green Apple Books in San Francisco is a unique, independent bookstore looking for ways to weather through the Amazon onslaught and the eBook revolution, and it’s trying a number of different ways, including Kobo.
The article How One Local Bookstore Is Dealing with the E-Book Revolution on the Time Tech website examines how Green Apple is tackling these new problems, and gives an honest account of one independent bookseller’s experiences.
I make sure to visit Green Apple Books every time I visit San Francisco, as my friends live in the Richmond District, and Green Apple always have a wonderful array of books. So, I’m very happy to hear that they’re going with new methods to keep their doors open. Best of luck to them, I plan to visit next time I’m in the Bay Area.
